Has anyone used this net as a garden trellis net and if so how does it work out.

I've had this netting for a few months now and I love it. I haven't lost any chickens to hawks or anything else. It's very sturdy and alot better than I thought it would be. It was worth what we paid for it. I would and will definitely buy another one.

I have not, but if you stretched it snugly enough & didn't have large fruits or vegetables growing on it, maybe a light ivy or the like, it might be fine. IT's lightweigth, but very sturdy.

I have not used it as a garden trellis. I believe it would stretch to easily to give support.

Potentially yes, You have to know that the net comes without the top and bottom supports depicted in the photo accompanying the item. You'll need to rig something up. Ropes are rough nylon designed for outdoors.

I love the trellis netting for growing many things but I am not sure it is appropriate for growing grapes which need a much stronger support system, such as wire or wood. I would not use it for that application

I have not left this outside, but it is easy to break down and set up. The net will compact onto one 3foot aluminum segment. I have had other nets. None compare to this.

Yes, Joyce, nylon trellis netting is strong enough to support clematis and anything that grows on a vine. It even works with heavy vegetables and fruit, like gourds and melons. You can use it to support plants either vertically or horizontally (for instance, you can use trellis netting instead of staking tomato plants. Hope this helps.

I have only used it on the grass, but I do stake it down so it will not move. On the cement I believe it would slide a little each time a ball went into it. It does have some weight too it, but if you put some kind of weight (maybe like a bucket with stuff in it) directly on the net on the backside that lays on the ground it would probably be fine. All in all I have had this net for about 2 years now, it was worth the money - I think I paid about $35. It has like a tent pole frame and I have broken a pole on it twice, I just sawed it off and stuffed back in the holder - has worked great both times I have only used it on the grass, but I do stake it down so it will not move.

Yes this is a great net. I have a crank style mechanism as well and I was able to pull it nice and tight it's been up for several months in all kinds of weather and still looks great.

My poles are in the ground. I have my tomato and cucumbers on this trellis net and all is holding up very well. I know nothing about blackberry vines.

Yes, the trellis netting can be used for this. There are many creative ways to use it. We have customers who use it in the gardens, on their porches and even to train potted plants to grow vertically indoors.

The netting is pretty fine and we have not had any issues. "No see - ems" are tiny, so I can't say for certain you would not have a problem. Any time you open the zipper or lift the net an irritating insect can get in. We really like this net - especially in white.

Should be okay because the whole net is encompassed by an elastic. This may be hard to envision but if you put it onto your net frame and let the bottom "corners" of the net pull in, it'll be a nice fit. What you'll see is that the two lower "corners" of the netting will pull in so that the bottom-back of the net area has netting on the ground. Wish I could make it clearer, but I can't. Basically, you should be fine.

I used PVC pipe in holes for my pool. Not sure what you are doing with the net but I got it to use in my pool.

there are metal spikes that fit into the footings ,allowing it to anchor pretty well . I used cable ties to attach them to a chain link fence. I suppose you could put one of those screws with the circle on top into the wall and run a cable tie through the hole and around your trellis. should be stable .

Anything you can stake in the ground securely that will support the trellis netting will work. You can purchase wood stakes or even use electrical conduit to build a simple frame. You can also use it with existing structures such as a wall or fence. There are many ideas for using garden netting in the ebook that you have access to after your purchase: 5 Creative Ways to Use Trellis Netting. I hope this helps.

This is NOT a good net for that.. it is tight and will kick the ball back to the source. I would recommend getting some TCB balls. This is what I use for front toss and I coach 5 teams ages 7-19 they work great and no fear of getting hit/hurt

I used 4x4x12 poles with crossing heavy wire. When the netting draped to the ground, I used limestone rocks to rull the net up a little along the edge to hold the netting to the ground. One thing we learned is we completely spread the netting out square on the ground, then rolled up the netting, then put it across my supporting structure and unrolled it. I used zip ties as well The netting works great for out chickens.

Not to bad. Like most will require some attention in a few spots. My biggest issue now is running a trellis netting and feeding anything in the back corners if ur running tables no problem there.
